Re: Things we loved about TFP!
I have always liked the song, but Andrew makes everything special.

Re: Things we loved about TFP!
Such a great song and I loved Andrew in that scene! Have you seen that some people have been putting other songs to that scene, quite funny.

Re: Things we loved about TFP!
I was going to mention and so now I will...on the DVD extras, there is a different tune playing behind Andrew, so I'm wondering if they changed it last minute.
I Want to Break Free is perfect for the scene and for Andrew.

Re: Things we loved about TFP!
Oh that's interesting, what's the other song? Like you say, maybe they changed their minds during post. Whatever the reason I'm glad they went with I Want To Break Free.

Re: Things we loved about TFP!
I honestly can't remember...anybody else?
Incidentally, Amanda's piece isn't on the DVD either.

Yes, Moriarty would most certainly be a fan of Queen.

Re: Things we loved about TFP!
For me its
- The roller coaster ride action and suspense
- Seeing Sherlock, John, and Mycroft together as team
- Eurus being a chilling and psychologically complex adversary
- The sailor disguise part
- The satisfying return to 221B at the end

Re: Things we loved about TFP!
A small scene that I really really love in TFP: Sherlock's smile near the end just after he shot the smiley face and blew air onto the gunpoint (is this how you say it in English???).
I think it is a new smile that we have never seen before on Sherlock's face. (I would need to rewatch the whole series to be sure, though. )
It is a very honest, gentle and content smile combined with a tiny bit of a cheeky smirk. I get the impression that this is very much Benedict himself showing through his Sherlock performance. I love it!!!
I don't know if he did that on purpose or if it just happened, because Sherlock has developed/matured so much by the end of TFP.
What are your thoughts?

Excellent observation and I think you're right. I love the tiny subtle things. Such a small smile and yet it does help illustrate how Sherlock has grown.
